Have you heard of Duffy Bishop? Well, if you are a fan of the Blues, then you should have. She is in the Blues Hall of Fame, after all, and will be here on Kauai on Friday, January 27th, for a show!
Starting at 8pm, Duffy Bishop will be playing at the Tahiti Nui Luau room in Hanalei!! While many artists, local and otherwise, often come through Kauai on a tour or just to visit, I think I am the most excited about hearing her. After all, she is a woman with such amazing talent that she has been nominated for a Grammy. Plus, she’s just plain fun to watch.
Her music is a combination of Blues, R&B, and Rock, and everything she does has this dynamic quality that is so rare amongst artists today. So if you’re staying on the North side of the island on the 27th, come to Hanalei for an awesome concert. Seats are only $20 a person and, believe me, the price is SO worth it.
Okay, maybe you just made plans to come to Kauai for the end of the year. Maybe you decided last minute and are now trying to find a nice hotel in your price range? Maybe you went to the hotel you had booked and realized just how expensive it was? Maybe your wall-mates in the room next to yours are extremely loud every night? Whatever the reason, you need to find a nice condo on Kauai to use during your stay. So have you considered Hanalei Bay Villa 15?
You know what? You probably haven’t! But you should. If you are going to be staying on the island with your small family or a couple friends, this is the place for you. Why? Well, let me list the reasons for you.
Comfort – This place is cozy. The furniture is all comfortable and nice. The style is island and the colors are fun and warm. And if you care nothing about the look, how about the fact that you get two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a living room, a full kitchen, a lanai, and a backyard to use. MUCH better than a hotel room, yes?
Cost – A hotel on Kauai around the holidays is expensive. Okay, it’s more than expensive; it’s like buying a car expensive. So if you want to be able to afford your vacation, a condo or vacation home is much better for you. Hanalei Bay Villa 15 is actually a cottage, so it has that homey quality that is so lack in many places. Plus, it’s only $1,330 a week! Seriously, that’s each week, not each night! Price some hotels and you’ll see how good a deal this place is.
Amenities – A hotel room will give you a mini bar (which costs money), a television (that can be heard through the walls), and a downstairs lobby and restaurant (which will be filled with the hundreds of other guests and will typically cost you money). With #15, you get views of Hanalei Bay and the mountains, a fully equipped kitchen, 2 TVs, a DVD player, a washer/dryer in your cottage, free wireless internet, and enough room to stretch out in. And the best part: you won’t have to do anything in front of a bunch of strangers.
Wouldn’t this be a great place to bring your family? Wouldn’t this be a great place for you to stay this holiday season? Don’t you want to call and book it now?
Want to vacation in style for Christmas? Then you should come and stay at Hale Ola Guest House for the holidays and enjoy the luxurious comfort that a private home can provide.
Most people think that vacationing on Kauai is expensive. But honestly, you can save a fortune if you simply rent a vacation home instead of purchasing a hotel room for the week. Instead of paying $1,000 a night for a nice room, why not pay $2,400 for an entire week and enjoy the privacy and comfort of your own home-away-from-home?
The Hale Ola Guest House is a lovely house in Hanalei with a close proximity to the ocean and a scenic view from each window. We are talking historic beachfront property here people, and it could be all yours during your winter vacation. Amenities for this property include cable TV, DVD/VCR, CD player, beach access, a private lanai, and nearness to Hanalei Town and all it has to offer. Plus, you won’t have to worry about the neighbors in the hotel room next to yours keeping you up all night.
This is a nice vacation home with historic significance, but don’t worry – it is up to date and ready for a resident or two. With two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a complete kitchen, any small family or set of couples would enjoy spending their time here. But spending time indoors isn’t what Kauai is all about. That’s why you can walk a short pathway down to the beach and spend the day soaking up the sun and playing in the water.
You can learn to surf, get a tan, go out to eat every night, and enjoy a private breakfast in your own living room the next morning. Thus is the wonder of a vacation home. So if you plan to visit Kauai, consider this beautiful Guest House for your lodging needs.
There is an activity here on Kauai that we do the first Saturday of every month starting at 9am. It’s something that most residents of Hanalei look forward with anticipation and something that I’ve decided to share with all of you.
It’s a swap meet!
Okay, that sounded a bit “little old lady” of me to insist that an entire town would love swap meets. But honestly, you would love them too if you were in the market for a nice longboard or some snorkeling gear. The first Saturday of each month is the Water Sports Swapmeet and residents from all over the island come to buy and sell their used equipment.
Now if you are a tourist reading this, don’t think that this will be a waste of your time. You can find some amazing deals at this swap meet and locate surfboards in mint condition. Owning your own gear is a great way to save some money on rentals and truly be a part of the water riding community. Plus, you can always check your new gear as baggage on the plane home.
So are you planning a trip to Kauai around the first weekend of December, January, February, March, etc? Well, then visit 5-5161 Kuhio Hwy in Hanalei. Come rain or shine, we’ll be here from 9-noon.
Do the words “private villa” mean anything to you? Well, they will once I tell you about Hanalei Bay Villa 12, a beautiful vacation rental with views of the bay and the mountains.
Hanalei Bay Villa 12 is located right near the heart of Princeville, so you will be close to shopping, restaurants, rental shops, movie stores, and much more. Plus, it has a majestic view of the bay with the lush mountainsides rising up behind it. Of course, you can see all of this from your private lanai, but that isn’t all there is to this rental.
Each room of this lovely home is fully furnished and equipped for your needs. Would you like to watch a movie when you get home? No problem. The Master suite has a TV with DVD and VCR hookup. Want to cook for yourself using locally grown foods? Okay. There is a fully equipped kitchen with all the cooking implements you will need. Want to check Facebook or lookup fun things to do around Kauai? Great! If you bring your laptop, this rental offers free high speed internet. Did you only have enough room in your suitcase for a few changes of clothes? Again, no problem. There is a washer/dryer unit in your villa for all of your laundering needs.
This three bedroom, two and a half bath villa is perfect for a family of 6 or less. And at only $1225/week, it’s reasonably priced as well. So if you want to be a bit spoiled during your stay here on Kauai, look up Hanalei Bay Villa 12 for your next visit.
Well, maybe it’s not a real castle, but how about a beautiful and spacious vacation rental home with a rock wall around the outside? If you are coming to Kauai and plan on stay on the North side of the island, I recommend Hale Ylang Ylang as your temporary home. Why? Because it’s nothing short of a wonderful escape from the rigors of life.
Hanalei Bay is one of the biggest tourist attractions in Kauai, a crescent shaped bay of white sand against crystal blue waters and backed by luscious mountains. And Hale Ylang Ylang is a short walk from the bay. In fact, from the second story of this well-furnished home, you can see the bay as well as the mountains. The view is truly breathtaking, but a pretty picture isn’t all this town home has to offer.
Upstairs you will find a large living room decorated with wood floors, warm tones, and soft plush couches. Add to this a DVD/CD player, cable TV, and high speed internet access and you have all of the comforts of home. The kitchen is also on the second floor, fully equipped with all you should need to prepare delightful meals for your whole family. This gourmet kitchen has an island counter to make prep easy and bar counter seating so your friends and family members can chat with you while you cook.
At the end of each day, you can journey downstairs where you will find two private master bedrooms containing King-sized beds and en suite bathrooms. There is even an outdoor shower for each suite so you can visit Hanalei Bay and then rinse off before slipping under the sheets. Of course, two suites mean that you can easily make this getaway a trip for two couples. While many vacation rentals, including this one, can easily accommodate a small family, finding a rental that allows privacy for two couples is much harder. Yet, with this rental, you can grab your best friends and vacation in style right near the beach!
Hale Ylang Ylang really does provide everything you might need to enjoy your vacation: a place to cook, a place to sleep, a beautiful view, a close proximity to adventure, a privacy shield made of rock, and a private lanai on which you can lounge. And if that weren’t enough, you would also be just a short walk away from town, a place where you can go shopping, eat at quality restaurants, enjoy some spa services, or rent equipment for water sports and other activities. This place has it all.
The end of August usually signals the end of tourist season. Summer vacation is over, family trips and vacations must be put on hold until next year, and the beaches thin out to only a few tourists and locals.
In other words, it’s the perfect time to visit!
Okay, this might sound harsh, especially since I love watching the tourists and their families having a great time here on Kauai. It’s a joy, plus they behave so differently from families here that they are fun to watch. BUT if you don’t have kids and you don’t have to stick to the typical school year schedule, this is your time.
September is a lovely time of year on Kauai. In fact, some of the best weather the island has is in September and October. The water temperature is a constant 74 degrees, surfing starts to pick up during September, and the rainy season doesn’t start for two more months! It’s great. And since it is no longer the summer season, you can find some great deals here on the island.
So come and visit. Don’t leave me all alone here with the beautiful, tropical weather. Make good use of your vacation time and see our wonderful island.
While we’re talking about Hanalei, you might also need a place to stay. I mean, why come all the way here to visit the bay, see the sights, learn to surf, and eat at Tahiti Nui when you’ll just have to travel a long way back to your home or hotel? No, the better idea is to stay in a nice rental on the island that is just 5 minutes walking distance from Hanalei Bay, a place like Blue Nui.
Blue Nui is a two-bedroom vacation rental just a short walk from everything Hanalei has to offer. The house itself has a full kitchen, cathedral ceilings, high speed Internet, a plasma TV, a bbq out back, and a washer/dryer unit. In other words, it has all of the comforts of home, plus some. The floors are made of bamboo, giving the entire house a comfy Hawaiian feel. And, for those who want to go take a dip in the bay, there is an outdoor shower so you don’t get your home all salty and sandy.
Looking out the windows or sitting out on the lanai, you’ll see lush vegetation, sprawling mountain ranges, and waterfalls. The yard even boasts its own tropical garden, so you can experience the jungles of Kauai without the hiking tour. And since the house sleeps five people, you can bring your friends with you to supplement the costs. Now doesn’t that sound like a much better way to visit Hanalei?
Hanalei is one of the most popular places on the island, probably due to the fact that Hanalei Bay is the most beautiful place on the island. Usually, when tourists come to visit, they want to see the famous half-moon bay in all of its glory. That brings them to Hanalei.
However, once they’re here, they get hungry. So, I’m going to write quickly about Tahiti Nui, a bar restaurant here in Hanalei.
The food here is good, or else I wouldn’t recommend it. I usually go for dinner though because I love live music. Each night starting at 6:30, a live musician or band gets up to play. (The schedule is on their website, so you’ll know what you’re getting into beforehand.) I love listening to the sounds of the Slack Key guitar and humming along to familiar songs. It’s a great time of delicious food and good entertainment.
So if you want to visit Hanalei, see the shops, sunbath on the beach of the half-moon bay, and generally have a good time, remember to stop by Tahiti Nui for dinner one night. I think you’ll really enjoy it.
April is an interesting time during the year for waves. And if you are going to be in Kauai on vacation and you want to try your hand at surfing, there are some things that you need to know.
For instance, even though it sounds odd, there are really two distinctive seasons for wave formations: winter and summer. Starting in May, the summer season begins and big waves can be found in the South. The winter season is from November through March and it’s a time for large waves in the North and the West.
For beginners, this means something very important. For one thing, you should actually avoid surfing in the South during the summer season and avoid the North and West during the winter season. Why? Well, the waves are not only large – they are enormous. Let’s just say that only the pros go out to those beaches on certain days, and even then they do so at their own risk. While “catching the big one” is a term you will hear often in surfing, beginners should never attempt large waves until they are fully capable of handling small ones… a skill I still do not possess.
Which brings me to April. If you didn’t notice, the winter season for waves usually ends in March and the summer season doesn’t start until May. This leaves April stuck right in the middle, which can be dangerous for tourists. The waves, while returning to normal size in the North and West, can still come in quite large and often times at random. The same occurs in the South. While the waves have been normal up until this point, now you will start to see extreme waves crashing up onto the beaches.
So be safe out there. April is an uncertain time for waves and it’s better to be cautious than to put yourself or your loved ones in danger. While I’m not saying to avoid the beach, I am saying that surfers should take extra care when choosing where to surf and when. Check the surf and ocean reports for daily hazards and up-to-date wave information. Ask a few island residents what the water is doing that day and change your plans accordingly if you need to. And keep a watchful eye on the water. After all, we want you to have fun and come back again.
I can’t help it. I love food. I like to eat it, watch others cooking it, experiment with it, and even use it in sculptures. (I refer here to my 5th grade art class assignment entitled: the food pyramid.)
Anyway, perhaps that’s why I write about food so often. There is just something about finding a great restaurant and eating there often that makes life seem more full and inviting. So I am going to go ahead and tell you about Bar Acuda.
If you like delicious food, Bar Acuda is a great place to visit. They’ve been around for over 5 years now, and they have a wonderful head chef who brings an artistic and international flair to the cooking. For instance, I would recommend trying an appetizer or two, but only if you bring in a large group. The appetizers are served tapas style, making them a fun experience for the whole table.
All of their food is good. Seriously, everything I’ve tried was different, interesting, and incredibly tasty. My recommendation is to go there hungry and be willing to try something you wouldn’t normally try. I can guarantee you that, unless you have severe food allergies, you won’t regret it. If you want an actual food item recommendation to try, I would say the seared sea scallop or the house-cured chorizo. Both were recommended to me and I loved them.
Oh and definitely save room for dessert. Trust me.
Bar Acuda is located right here in Hanalei off of Kuhio Highway near Waioli Park. It’s not hard to find and its easy to access, especially if you stay on the north side of the island. So eat well and enjoy!
Well, for those who want a bit more information about the tsunami hitting Kauai, I should be able to help you out. It was a bit crazy around here right after the news hit about Japan, and everyone was scrambling to protect their homes and property. Now, however, I can safely say that everyone is okay.
Kauai was the first of the Hawaiian Islands to be hit with the waves, a little over 6 feet tall and dangerous. Here is a little known fact: tsunami waves aren’t like normal waves. Not only are they quite a bit bigger, but they also have the tendency to wrap around an island, hitting it from all shores. This tsunami was no different. Each of our unprotected beaches was hit, and for hours the plethora of waves continued to pound our coasts.
The residents of many Kauai towns were evacuated on Thursday night and early Friday morning. From my house, I could hear the civil defense sirens sounding the alarm every hour until the first waves hit around 3am. But the evacuation didn’t last long. While several of the harbors were flooded and a few homes and businesses, the cleanup wasn’t bad and most businesses are back open.
Fortunately, no real damage was done. There were some minor inconveniences and some bad weather, but our island was relatively unscathed. Within a day, almost everything was back open again and day-to-day activities commenced. I couldn’t even get out of work. ☺ While it was a day that we will all remember and mourn for the devastation in Japan, I am thankful that it wasn’t worse here on our small island.
I understand that Kauai can be expensive. After all, you use up some money flying to the island, only to have to afford housing once you arrive. However, don’t let that detour you for Spring Break this year. You could rent a four-bedroom house for yourself and several of your friends and save a fortune. And I have just the house for you: Nani Kai.
Nani Kai has lots of space and is perfect for a Spring Break getaway. There are several beds and lots of floor space, so you can house a whole bunch of your friends. Plus, Nani Kai is close to town and a short walk to the beach, the local bars, restaurants, shops, and everything else Hanalei has to offer. This way you don’t have to spend a fortune on transportation.
Renting a house is great for Spring Break because you can be as loud and as messy as you want, as long as you pick up before you leave. And you don’t have to eat out for every meal unless you want to do so. You could stock the house with food and even cook meals in your own kitchen. And for the guys who want to play with fire, there is even a BBQ on the property.
Nani Kai has a big back yard for running around with friends and playing touch football and other games. There is a romantic gazebo in back for privacy and a view of the mountains from the house. Other amenities include high speed internet, a washer and dryer, and air conditioning for those hot and humid days. So consider coming out to Nani Kai for Spring Break this year. If you split the cost, you could well afford a dream vacation.
If you want to visit the caves or anything else on the north shore of Kauai, chances are that you’ll want to stay somewhere nearby. Might I recommend a Hanalei vacation rental for your stay? Hanalei is a quaint and lovely town filled with art lovers and friendly people. And it is one of the most beautiful places in Kauai, for it has the Hanalei Bay (the most sought-after tourist spot on the island). So if you are up for staying in a welcoming place with natural and artistic beauty, how about staying in Lokelani?
Lokelani is a vacation home in Hanalei just 200 steps from the sand of beautiful Hanalei Bay. So, you will be right in the middle of things, able to walk to the beach or into town for a quick shopping trip or a meal in one of the fine restaurants. Not to mention the fact that there is a gorgeous garden and views from the house of the distant waterfalls and turquoise bay waters.
But, of course, the location isn’t everything… though it sure counts for a lot. The house itself is lovely, with bamboo floors and artistic touches throughout. There are two bedrooms and an extra daybed, so up to five adults can sleep there comfortably, and there are two bathrooms so there will be no fighting over counter space in the mornings. Plus, this home comes with all of the best amenities from a full-service kitchen and laundry room to high speed internet, television, and an outdoor grill for cooking up some of the local flavor. If you want to walk down to the beach for a swim in the bay, you can. And when you get back, you can easily rinse off in the outdoor shower so you don’t drag sand and saltwater into your home.
The freedom of having your own getaway home is a priceless comfort, and this house provides exactly what you need: living space, the ability to escape the crowds, a kitchen to save you money on eating out, closeness to shops and the beach, and a wealth of things to do. In fact, the only thing that I didn’t like about this house was the quilt on the bed. It was perfectly warm and snuggly at night, but I didn’t like the colors. And if that is the only thing I can find to hate about this house, I think you’ll be truly happy with it. Enjoy!
As a child, I always loved caves. There was just something about them that drew me in, causing me to imagine my life underground or living in our historical past. Natural cave formations always fill me with wonder and make my imagination run wild. Perhaps that’s why I am always finding excuses to visit a cave or two.
So I figured if I liked exploring caves, some of my readers might like it too. Therefore, I’m going to briefly describe a few caves in the area that you can visit while you are staying on Kauai.
The first cave is the Maniniholo Dry Cave, and it is called that because you won’t have to get wet to see it. This fun natural cavern is only 300 yards deep and wanders back to a small exit hole on the side of the mountain. According to my grandparents, this cave used to be a lot bigger. However, back in 1957, a tsunami filled over half of it with sand, meaning that a large portion of the cave was lost. As a child, I used to pretend to be an archeologist, digging out the lost parts of the cave and discovering a whole new civilization living under the sand. Now, however, I just visit for the fun of it. If you want to see this cave, it is located near Haena Beach Park on Route 560. When you get to the park, look for the cave off to your left. You should be able to find it without a problem.
Of course, no cave exploration is complete without a little bit of water. Underwater caves are probably my favorite, since the sea depths have always been a mystery themselves. Somehow a dark underwater cave seems to scream hidden treasures, natural wonders, and an abundance of mystery.
There are two underwater caves within a couple hundred yards of each other, so I will direct you there. These caves are the Waikanaloa and Waikapalae Caves. They are both underground and have been explored over the years by scuba divers of all ages. These caves are close together and fun to explore, but they are a bit trickier to find. Located after Haena but before Kee Beach, you can simply drive north on the 560 through Hanalei about 9 miles from Princeville. You will see signs for one of the caves directly off the left side of the road. From there, you can also explore the second cave, since it is only accessible from the water.
The Christmas season is behind us, but New Years is just around the corner. And, of course, what better way is there to celebrate the New Year than to take a Hawaiian vacation?! So for those of you who want to visit the island, have I told you about Blu Nui?
Blu Nui is a wonderful vacation rental located right in Hanalei, one of the most popular areas of Kauai. With two bedrooms and one bath, this spacious home rental is perfect for a small family or a couple who want to get away for a while. Let’s talk features.
Blu Nui has just about everything you will need to be comfortable and happy while you’re here. With a full kitchen, high speed Internet, a plasma television with DVD player, a gas grill, a washer/dryer combo, and an expansive yard, this rental has it all. Plus, it’s only a short 5-minute walk to Hanalei Bay, the most beautiful and well-known site in all of Kauai. Now, let’s discuss the house itself.
The first thing you will notice about this rental is the ceiling. This rental has gorgeous cathedral ceilings that give the entire space an open and majestic feel. The floors are bamboo, so you have a Hawaiian feel all throughout the house, and each window offers a stunning view, from mountain landscapes to rainbow-accented waterfalls. There is even a back lanai, covered for your comfort, that looks out upon the tropical gardens. Seriously, what more could you ask for?
This New Year, celebrate in style in your own Kauai vacation rental home. Ring in 2011 with luaus on the beach, surfing lessons for the kids, and romantic dinners in our gourmet restaurants. There truly is no better way to spend a holiday.
Today I went on a date with a good friend to Haena. It was a lunch date, so it wasn’t too formal. Therefore, I didn’t really dress up too much. However, he surprised me when we got there by taking me to the Mediterranean Gourmet Restaurant!
The restaurant itself is at the Hanalei Colony Resort, and I’ve only eaten there a handful of times since it opened in 2006. In fact, I’m pretty sure we went there because I mentioned wanting to try it again some time ago before we were dating. I guess he remembered.
This wonderful Mediterranean Gourmet Restaurant is a north shore favorite, especially among the natives and permanent residents of Kauai. Voted the best restaurant on Kauai for 5 years running, it is one of the few places were you can get gourmet food from across the world and enjoy a fine dining experience. There are dishes on the menu from many different countries, so you can enjoy Greek, French, Spanish, Italian, and Middle Eastern influenced dishes as well as classic Pacific Rim favorites. It’s the perfect place for a night out on the town or a surprise lunch date.
We sat down right next to the window, so I could see the entire oceanfront and watch the waves. Lunchtime was pretty relaxed, so I didn’t feel underdressed or overly spoiled, which is good because this was a first date. We simply tried a couple dishes, stole from the other one’s plate, and enjoyed the atmosphere. Our server was gracious, friendly, and efficient, and our food was quick in coming. Overall, everything about the restaurant was perfect.
If you are visiting the island, I would definitely recommend this place. You can come here for a romantic dinner or simply bring your family for some great food. I know that I want to go back, especially if I can return with the same guy.
When you visit my little corner of Kauai, you get all of the best vacations all in one. I’ve often heard my cousins discussing where they will vacation, whether near the beach or to the mountains or to a tropical location. Those really are the three choices most people consider when they think about vacations. And Kauai has them all!
Mountains – First of all, Kauai is known for its beautiful mountain ranges. The Haupu Mountain Range is definitely a sight to see. Located between Lihue and Hanapepe, this range covers a lot of ground and extends all the way to the ocean. The highest peak on this range is known as Haupu Peak, and it is almost 2300 feet above sea level! Not bad for an island that is directly on the sea.
Beaches – There are several beaches on Kauai, most notably Hanalei Bay. That is my favorite, especially since it is so close to where I live on the north shore. With white sand galore and a half-moon crescent shape, this is a beautiful spot to snorkel, swim, scuba dive, paddle boat, and enjoy the water.
Tropical Locations – All of Kauai is a tropical location. It contains a rainforest that is one of the lushest locations in the world. Plus, there are hiking trails, biking routes, tours, helicopter rides, and zip line adventures to several of the most secluded spots in the forest. So no matter what you feel like doing, you can experience the wonder of our tropical environment.
So, as you can see, we really do have it all.
Sunday, November 14, was a very hard day on the island of Kauai for many of its residents. Why is that? Well, one of our heroes was committed to the sea.
Andy Irons was returned to the island for his funeral on Sunday, accompanied by his family and several friends and natives. His ashes were laid to rest in Hanalei Bay, a site of extreme beauty and peace and a place Andy himself loved. It was a beautiful ceremony and a sobering event. He will very much be missed.
I guess it goes without saying that Andy Irons was a personal hero of mine. I used to watch him surf, wishing that I could fly across the waves like he did. Of course, if you have read this blog before, then you know that I can’t surf at all. It’s like watching a rag doll fall down the stairs. But when Andy took up a board, it was like he could walk on air.
I remember watching him for the very first time several years ago. There were some big waves that day, and most of the surfers on the island were out in force. But you could clearly tell which one was Andy. Not only did all of the other surfers stop and stare at him, but he also out-surfed them all, and he made it look effortless. I remember wanting to learn to surf so badly after that. I even went out on the water with a few friends. But unfortunately that lesson ended the same way that all of the previous ones had: I was waterlogged and bruised.
I dearly hope that Irons’ widow knows how much he will be missed by the world, especially those of us on Kauai. It is such an honor to have our Hanalei Bay be his final resting place.
I have been sick for several days. I hate the flu, and I really hate not knowing who I got it from. So I decided to investigate. I called all of my friends and had them come by so I could interrogate them. Unfortunately, none of them had been sick recently, and none of them knew anyone who was. So the case was cold.
Next, I called work to see if anyone else had called in recently with the flu. Someone had. My co-worker Greg had called in two days before, and he hadn’t been back since. I knew that he was the one who had infected me, but I just couldn’t prove it. So I did some more digging.
Against my better judgment, I called him. But his wife said that he wasn’t home. I told her it was extremely important and that I just needed to ask him one question. So, she went ahead and gave me his cell phone number. After calling him, I discovered that he wasn’t sick at all. In fact, he and a couple of friends had rented a boat from a place like North Shore Charters and had gone out sailing for a few days. They had just gotten back an hour before at were on their way home. My case had suddenly gone cold again, and I was getting the chills.
Today, I still have a bit of the flu, but it’s getting better. I never did figure out where I got it from, but that’s the least of my problems. All of my friends who came over to be interrogated ended up sick, and they are not happy with me. Sorry guys!
